OSCAR-winning director Milos Forman handed away in his sleep after a brief sickness late final night time, his supervisor has confirmed.

Other films included his 1979 adaptation of hippie musical "Hair", followed by "Ragtime", "Amadeus", "Valmont", "The People vs. Larry Flynt" and "Man on the Moon", in which he directed a deeply in-character Jim Carrey, whose full immersion as comedian Andy Kaufman was chronicled in the recent Netflix documentary "Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond".

Milos, real name Jan Tomas Forman, was born in Czechoslovakia and was orphaned at a young age when his parents were taken to separate concentration camps by Nazis. "Though he blossomed in exile in 1970s America, his memory of totalitarianism would forever be his muse", writes Gina Piccalo at the Los Angeles Times.

Before emigrating, Forman studied at the Prague Film Academy (FAMU) and was a leading figure of the Czechoslovak New Wave film movement, along with directors Ivan Passer, Vera Chytilova and others. Michael Douglas and Saul Zaentz had approached Forman about adapting the Ken Kesey book, and Jack Nicholson would go on to star. About a decade later, Forman again scored Academy Award success with Amadeus.
